>> i did not run and hit the guy. did i not kidney punch him. >> his voice got higher as the conversation went on. you can talk to people about what that means. >> you look like a smurf here. >> just another day in the capitol. >> that is one week of covering washington in the world. monday on "special report." we have the leaders of the house foreign affairs committee, michael mccaul "common ground" segment on supporting israel. and its fight against hamas. please join shannon bream for "fox news sunday." her guest democratic senator chris coons and former secretary of state mike pompeo. thanks for inviting us into your home tonight. that's it for this "special report," fair, balanced and still unafraid. and as we look live at more protests happening in new york, we're monitoring all these things around the country. we have got you covered here on fox. "the ingraham angle" is, next. ♪ ♪ ♪ >> laura: hi, everyone. i'm laura ingraham.

this is "the ingraham angle" from nashville tonight. biden's weekend. that's the focus of tonight's angle. >> laura: all right, the press hopes that the past few days will make you forget just how much money you've lost from bidenflation from the high food and gas prices and forget how much of the country we have lost from the open border. and, instead, the media want you to be impressed that joe biden could walk and talk with president xi. >> he's the most effective foreign policy leader since 41, bush 41. he is managing conflicts extreme -- extraordinarily. he has great team around him. >> this is a big deal the two men spent a lot of time together. kind of went for a walk. reminds me of reagan and reykjavik and gorbachev. >> most important thing accomplished was simply the two men spoke. in a room trying to reset relations. >> were they watching the same

summit as the rest of us? >> um, i'm embarrassed. i think it's cbs but i can't remember who with cbs. i'm sorry. uh -- ♪ ♪ >> all right. you have heard at weekend at bernie's? this was weekdays with biden. the man was totally muddled and, of course, his big donors, all those corporate titans like tim cook, prostrating themselves before their dear communist leader. they came across as clueless as biden themself. >> like many others in this room i believe that a strong and prosperous china that supports and invests in the international system could to be a force for

good in the world. the u.s. business community strongly supports productive government-to-government dialogue and progress in the relationship. we firmly believe that continued economic growth in the united states and china is essential to global stability. >> laura: global stability? now, where exactly has china been a force for global stability? let me think. taiwan? ukraine? oh, dealing with hamas? this is just a bad joke at this point. the fact is big business long ago stopped being about american jobs and american manufacturing. they claim to care about a lot of social justice issues. but that really only applies to when left wing groups are criticizing the united states about things like race, like after the floyd riots or climate change all the time. this was the pro-china trade "wall street journal's" take on the matter. mr. xi received a standing ovation for taking the stage before he said a word.

and then the hollowness of mr. xi's remarks under scores how no one can claim they attended to learn more about the opaque intentions of the leader of the world's second largest economy. ouch. as for biden's own commerce secretary who i have to say already dimmest bulbs in low wattage cabinet. she obviously thinks biden's global appeal is going to help him for a national u.s. appeal in 2024. >> a world requires us to manage this relationship responsibly. and to deliver on transnational challenges like climate change and global health that effect people around the world. >> laura: now, republicans should just hope that gina keeps speaking out, keeps making the case because she is totally out of touch with the concerns of regular americans. oh, by the way, and speaking of concern, well, biden's secretary

of state, look at tony blinken, because he seemed very concerned whenever biden was left to speak on his own, move on his own during those days in san francisco, check out the look on his face when biden answered a rather uncomfortable question. >> mr. president, after today do you feel the word president xi dictator term you used earlier this year. >> look, he is in the sense that he is a guy who runs a country that is communist country that. >> look at the facial expression as the president was being shoed out of the meeting room earlier that day. biden is not -- look, blinken is not a complete buffoon because he knows that two thirds of the country are now saying america is on the wrong track as a nation. and is he probably thinking to himself, how is putting biden across the table from xi going to help matters in that regard?

in that poll taken before the summit has trump up 4% nationally on the very experienced joe biden. and a brand new "the washington post" monmouth survey just came out shows support for trump's populist, not globalist, america first approach to both domestic and foreign policy is growing. because america, look, they look and they see what is happening around the world. the more money we spend, the worse things seem to get. they are souring on biden pet proxy war in ukraine. 51% of primary voters in new hampshire say we should not keep sending military aid. and as for the most important issues? illegal immigration top the list now with 25% saying it's the most important, followed by inflation, and rising prices at 20%. and then the justice department being used for political purposes. at 10%. well, nothing this week is going to change the public's overall view that biden is just in over

his head on the world stage. 46 percent said they trust trump more in dealing with china compared to only 34% who trust biden more. the american people, i think, have caught on. again, they're looking around. they see the body language. they see it all. so they have caught on to biden's globalist charade. and, if anything, i think the summit is only going to solidify that position. americans who believe we should remain a free and independent country will view the xi-biden summit as not a strong start to a new beginning, but a weak end to an already hobbled u.s. position on the global stage and the biden presidency. and that's the angle. joining me now is nate than sales, former ambassador at large and counter terror coordinator under trump and kristen whiton a former trump state department senior adviser, senior fellow at the center for national interest. christian,

let's start with you. the media are really trying to sell this as some, you know, some residual benefit for joe biden after the dust settles on the summit. >> no, i don't think so. i mean, if you go back to the reason he won in spotlight. the more people see him, the more people see his cognitive decline, the more people see he looks like a junior partner to xi jinping and really just came out of this summit with nothing. i mean, we have this fake agreement on fentanyl. i'll believe that when i see it. i don't think the chinese are going to change their conduct at all. we also agreed to limit the use of artificial intelligence and military applications. that hurts us. that hurts the united states. that's an area where we could actually get an edge on china and get ahead of their very large military build-up. but he gave this away and got

very little -- got really nothing in return. >> laura: now, nathan, the economists is out with a delusional piece today that was titled donald trump poses the big danger to the world in 2024. they are arguing that the greatest threat mr. trump poses to his own country and china and its friends would rejoice over the evidence that american democracy is dysfunctional. nathan, here you have trillions of dollars in corporate wealth gathered to prostrate themselves at the feet of a communist dictator and the communist is saying trump is the problem? trump is anti-democratic? >> i mean, laura, it's deranged. look around the world. the world is on fire. russia has invaded ukraine in a war of aggression, that seems to me to be a pretty big threat to the united states and the world order. china is hungrily eyeing taiwan

across the strait. xi jinping is going to use military force if he can. he has told the people liberation army be ready by 2027. and this is what the economist is worried about? what about iran which just launched a huge war on israel using terror proxy hamas? and is launching, i think, over 60 rocket attacks through proxies on american forces across the middle east? where is that in the conversation? i think, you know, the economist has just lost its mind if it looks at the world and thinks that the united states is the major problem here. >> well, christian, the interesting thing in this monmouth survey, again, it just came out. is that foreign policy is way down on the list of concerns, including, you know, ukraine and there is some more concern for hamas. but, not much. it still is our border, our economy, crime is even actually fairly low in this new survey, which i found interesting. but it's really the economy and

the border are the dominant issues which, again, explains trump's enduring appeal in a state like new hampshire that's kind of a quirky state for republicans but trump is up, i think, almost 40 points over nikki haley. >> right. i think -- right. well, foreign policy being low, i think part of that is explained by the washington mono party. trump and desantis have differed from the status quo, from the establishment on ukraine. but you still have both parties in congress itching to spend billions more. now, the new speaker of the house separated aide to israel from aid to ukraine. guaranteed by the end of december, certainly by the end of january, these people will have sent billions more of our dollars to a stalemate in ukraine after an acounteroffensive that has failed foreign policy hasn't been on the agenda and i think won't be until trump or desantis put it there. but, economically, yeah, i mean no matter how much they tout bidenomics. people understand they have lost 25% of their purchasing power,

25% of your savings. 25% of your ability to buy something, whether it's a house or a hamburger has been taken away by joe biden. that's what the problem is go to deflation not coming back. >> laura: even the "new york times" had to admit that that biden's biggest enemy out there, it's not -- it's not the anti-democracy forces in the united states, it's the lowered buying power of americans because sustained inflationary pressures. jennifer palmieri how joe biden can run strong next year. watch. >> he could run on the american military being the strongest in the world. american leadership being restored. the american economy rebounding from covid, and democracy, while constantly under threat, more people are voting. president biden can do. this it's not just bidenomics. >> nathan, did biden succeed on anything that she just mentioned

there? >> it seems like she is grading on a curve, laura. look. nobody can look at america's position in the world today and say that we're better off today than we were three and a half, four years ago. vladimir putin was not deterred by the biden administration. he launched a war of aggression in ukraine. then the biden administration's response to this has been to slow rolaid. rather than giving ukraine what it needs to win, the administration is giving ukraine just barely enough to stay in the fight and prolong this for months and months long than necessary. whether it comes to the military. >> $400 million. that's a lot of money. >> laura: nathan you and i could debate ukraine for hours here, but suffice it to say, that $120 billion for what we were saying we were getting, that's just -- the american people are just going to say no to that. i'm sorry. the american people have already said no to that. but we obviously know who the

good guys are. christian whiten and nathan, thank you very much. this is a fox news alert. moments ago a colorado judge ruled that trump will not be disqualified from the 2024 ballot in that state. we're going to discuss it in moments with the man who argued it in court. stay with us. ♪

♪ >> laura: this is a fox news alert. three strikes and biden's proxies are out. moments ago a colorado judge ruled that donald trump is staying on the 2024 ballot in that state. remember, the fourth amendment challenge that was lodged in colorado, in minnesota, and in michigan. all three of those have gone trump's way. joining me now is mike davis, founder and president of the article iii project and a former clerk to supreme court justice neil gorsuch. mike, your reaction? these are three rulings now that have tossed aside at least for now the 1st amendment argument that the left was saying was their ticket to keeping trump off the ballot. tell us what this means. >> well, i think this biased denver district court judge out here blinked. because i was certain sitting through the trial the week long trial that she was going to rule against president trump.

but i think that she saw the political backlash. she saw the three other courts in three different states ruled against this democrat theory to try to toss president trump off the ballot. impeached him twice and indicted him four times. to illegal gag orders. tried to bankrupt him with a bogus civil fraud lawsuit. that only helped president trump with the polls. this was their legal hail mary to take trump off the ballot and now they are 0 for 3. >> laura: this is district judge sarah wallace. the third ruling as i said in just a little over a week. these lawsuits were filed by a left leaning group that included a bunch of never trumpers, democrats and so forth. here is a key quote from the judge's ruling. she said to be clear part of the court's decision is its reluctance to embrace and interpretation which would disqualify a presidential candidate without a clear, unmistakable indication that

such is the intent of section 3, the section 3 of the -- section 3 # i believe in the constitutional argument of the 14th amendment; is that correct, mike? that is correct and this judge came back from the break. we could not get anything worse for our country to simply take the leading presidential candidate off the ballot based upon a bogus, partisan legal theory that the democrats are pedaling here. the only way to disqualify an office holder under section 3 of the constitution, according to case law on the books for 150 years is to bring federal criminal charges for insurrection or rebellion, have a jury unanimously find him guilty with evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. the district judge has to convict and it has to be upheld on the field. that's the only route. there is no chance that president trump was involved with an insurrection on january 6th. it was a lawful protest

permitted by the national park service that got out of control and turned into a right. >> laura: everyone should understand the minnesota supreme court ruling on that, that was just last week do he could remain ballot. where weather he aappears. and the michigan judge who ruled on this said that conscious is the proper forum for deciding whether section 3 of the 1st amendment applied. three different judges, three different parts of the country. mike, i now want to bring in an attorney who defended trump in this former colorado secretary of state scott god guess ler. it was ironic all these individuals who were out there calling trump a force against democracy this is dangerous, tyrannical impulses of donald trump. yet, this is precisely what this radical interpretation of section 3, article of the 1st

amendment, the constitution would have done by ripping him off the ballot. it's stunning to me. >> that's exactly the case. unfortunately, this judge allowed them to go through a full five day hearing and a lot further in the process than this should have ever gone. but, ultimately, she made the right decision. and that decision is that the people of the united states, we're the unones who get to choose who our president is going it be. not the courts this whole series of cases relies on unusual theories from a law that hasn't been enforced in probably over 100 years. it was a desperate attempt to really prevent people from being able to vote for the person they want. >> laura: mike, i have said this time and again and it's worth repeating tonight is that the only way the left will stop, if they are stopped -- if they are stopped by either being, you know, a judge's ruling, and it

has to be emphatic ruling or a sweeping electoral victory by americans who just say, you know, enough of this. this isn't even common sense. forget being a constitutional scholar. this makes no sense. but, you know, judges, one after another, have come in and said cannot do this. >> yeah. i mean, i would say this is going to be a tactical retreat by the democrats, like you said, laura, they play for keeps. they will do whatever it takes to win. if you thought the 2020 was bad with blm riots, brace ourselves for what they have in store in 2024 with their hamas and blm supports. >> laura: when we look at this -- the way this was cased as being argued and, look, they are going to not stop, so you argue this case and you win in colorado, but what's the next hill that has to be climbed for president trump? the former state secretary? >> well, from a legal standpoint, i think colorado was probably their best chance. i think this is their high water

mark. i'm sure they will try appealing it to the colorado supreme court. i don't think they will have any more luck there than they have had anywhere else across the country. i'm guessing they will probably start cooking up a new legal theory that we haven't -- no one has thought of yet because it's so far out to the left wing and no one will think of it. this, i think, i hope, is their high water mark. >> laura: scott, were you surprised, if you saw it, in this new, i believe this was -- no, sorry, yeah, this is the "the washington post" monmouth poll, that shows that republican primary voters in new hampshire, the third -- i think it's the third most important issue for them is the justice department's unfair application of the law. it was open border. it was inflation, high prices, and i think that came in either third or fourth, ahead of crime. what does that tell you about what republican primary voters are seeing? and that's, again, the quirky state of new hampshire. >> yeah.

i think people are really concerned about fundamental fairness in country. and, you know, we even saw this in colorado where the secretary of state, the current secretary of state here, instead of sort of being neutral and an honest broker, as soon as this complaint was filed, she came out and accused of president trump of all kinds of things, it was pretty clear she was biased from the start. so, i think people are really concerned about the weaponization of the department of justice, of a lot of our public officials. you know, particularly ones who, you know, just hate president trump. they want to do everything they can to stop him and they're using the law rather than the democratic processes. >> laura: mike, nothing is worse than that judge engoron. i think that case in new york, the law clerk, the judge, the smirking for the cameras, letitia james, of all the cases, do you think that is, perhaps, the worst and the most obviously biased, mike? >> i mean, they are blatantly biased the problem is he is clearly going to rule against

trump and bankrupt. thank god we had a complaint against biased manhattan judge. we need to start fighting bark against this lawfare and election interference. >> laura: thank you both so much. an layman defends his family and, for that, guess what? of course california decides to punish him. the facts of this case, i assure you, will infuriate you. and the man i'm talking about, defending his family is here to tell you what happened, next. ♪

get in my home. the first thing i thought was my family and there is no way i'm letting this happen. >> and did you -- do you carry regularly i never real thought i was going to use it. never thought this was going to happen. after seeing this uptick in crime and homelessness became commonplace that robberies were going to happen. it's not even c cc matter. i was on my own property. i was walking in the driveway and entering my house. so, this petty attempt for them to strip me of my ability to carry outside of my house for something that happened on my property is just unexplainable. >> laura: i see what you are saying. d.c. has really strict conceal carry rules. you have to register one gun at a time. so is the gun you used registered as a conceal carry? >> yes. the gun, glock 26 is registered as my one conceal carry.

which i at the time like i said i never really thought i was going to have to use it and i went about it the right way. i quieted the right way. they granted me the right to carry. now they are stripping me with the men at large that were looking for me and not giving me the ability to defend myself. >> laura: what's the reason to believe? >> i think it's pretty blatant what the reason, california notorious reputation anti-gun and anti-anybody being able to carry a firearm unless you are part of the government somehow. this aspect of them stripping him of his ability to carry a firearm. especially when he would talking about a situation that happened on his property, it just wreaks of their hatred for citizens law-abiding citizens for that matter being able to carry firearms to protect themselves. >> laura: i have to say, vince, newsom did propose that 28th amendment to the constitution which would, you know, you know, preserve the language of the

second amendment but then add a whole bunch of new requirements and limitations to gun ownership in the united states that, you know, they came is, very, very popular and people would want. he is notoriously anti-gun rights. i don't care what he tries to say. newsom is one of the worst and california is the second most, you know, poorly rated state as far as gun rights in the united states even shows graphic for the worst in the united states. is there any doubt in your mind that california at this point, especially where you live, it's a pro-criminal jurisdiction? it's not pro-gun rights? it's pro-criminal. >> absolutely. the sheriff's attempt now at coming after me is petty. i think should step up and actually represent the citizens, the good citizens that give back to the community and not partake in the criminal activity that's happening because they are not getting arrested.

they are not going after them. they are trying to restrict me. >> laura: the best states we just put up, arizona, utah, alaska and so forth, washington, d.c., california california, maryland, new jersey among the absolute worst. by the way, i want to bring this up, you know in florida violent crime fell 2022. compared to california. california violent crime spiked 1% last year compared to 2019. what would you say to newsom, colion about this approach to people like vince who are trying to defend his family on his own property given what the people of l.a. and l.a. county, especially, san francisco are saying? >> well, first of all, i think first of all, newsom need to stop focusing on this issue from a position of control. because, if you really talking about keeping people safe and saving people's lives. you would empower people to be

able to protect themselves sips it's clearly been demonstrated that the police can't be there. when vince was at home and guys jumping over his wall was joe biden there, was a cop there, was gavin newsom there to help stop? no they weren't. it was vince and two guys. they create law after claw after law makes it harder for people like vince to be able to protect himself with two people with firearms. you mentioned the whole point about the 28th amendment. the mere fact that he is trying to push this demonstrates how much he hates the second amendment. if he understood the constitution and the second amendment. it was written to tell the government what they can't do against our ability to own and carry firearms. he is creating an entire amendment which limits that ability. that's insane to me. >> laura: v.i.p.'s, you are going to get your conceal carry permit back if we have anything to say about it. vince and colion, thank you so much. next, gen z completely pushed out of the housing market, but,

sits around 81,000. as a millennial, the median household income sits around, i think, 70. but, yet, the average house is $400,000 in this country and with the 8% interest rates, you need to earn about $120,000 a year to have a shot at qualifying for this loan. so you can see how that is discourages. >> laura: wow. >> they are not even close. that's why it's discouraging. they are being forced to rent but with the rent prices being high, they are now being forced to spend 30 to 40% of their income on rent. >> laura: now, freddie, the average age of the first-time homeowners to your point is surging. it's currently at 35, according to the national association of realtors. but the average of repeat buyers is also going up. that is currently at 58. so, the baby boomers are buying up a disproportionate percentage of real estate in the united

states. big front page article in the "the washington post" this week. so, what does this say, again, about power, the power of money among young people and how this is going to impact their lives going forward? i mean, this is a nightmare. >> it is, yeah. for the younger generation for sure. the baby boomers or anyone who really bought in 2010 or before, they have a lot of equity. so people can sell their homes and upgrade or downgrade and putting massive down payments down, so the loan amounts very low. so the interest rates aren't as bad for them. for a millennial or a gen z, they are not going to come up with 80 to $100,000 for a down payment. we're lucky to get 20, 30, $40,000. but, again, you still need that 120 income to back it up. so, i think we are going to have to figure out for millennials and gen zs american dream or how to solve this massive issue because it's bleeding into every other part of our lives. if you are forced to rent and spend 40% of your money, how are

you paying off your student loan debt? how are you investing in a retirement fund? how are you saving for a down payment if 40% goes to housing? >> laura: it lowers the ceiling. you lower the ceiling of exceptions for everyone which was never the american dream. the american dream was do better than your parents. you know, surge ahead. strive for the best. but with this, i guess my next question is politically, whom do they blame for this or do they get caught up in all the social issues? if this is the really one of the top issues, and it always is, the economy, then, i mean, this didn't happen under trump. whatever you think about trump, this did not happen under trump. >> i think people are feeling it. i think, regardless of what party you are for at this point, the one thing we can all agree on is that money is tight. and we all need to come together and make changes. so, i want to see in the next year, especially, who is going to come out and speak about

fixing the housing affordability and rent and raising wages. because millennials need to see some hope in the future of like, hey, i see myself getting to 100 grand. i'm going to pay off some debt. i'm going to buy myself a house and a piece of the american dream. we need to see a road map. i'm excited. i want to see a leader and take charge and guide us and teach us what to do. >> laura: freddie, always great to see you. thanks so much. >> yeah. thank you very much. >> laura: coming up a wide ranging conversation i had with voters about the state of things in biden's america. some of their responses may surprise you. that's next. ♪ i served three overseas tours. i love to give back to the community. i offer what i can when i can. i started noticing my memory was slipping. i saw a prevagen commercial and i did some research on it. i started taking prevagen about three years ago. i feel clearer in my thoughts,

last night in nashville at the grand ole opry house, raymond and i had a chance to talk to some voters. what is their main concern? joe biden. >> it's not just the number of the age. it's the mental acutie of the person. he's not mentally capable of doing the job. >> laura: he wasn't in 2020, remember. he still won. you know, he still won. again, there's a lot of factors that come into play. he's not going to run a campaign. he's not going to campaign. the media will campaign for him. that's what's going to happen and obama and michelle and all the rest. >> one of the things we have to look at as republicans is to get out the vote. the democrat kills us every major election because they're so successful at registering voters. the republicans are falling behind anybody that effort. the polls, the numbers look

great, but every time we start counting the votes, i get disappointed and concerned because we don't have those votes. >> laura: state parties are responsible for getting out the vote. so state republican parties have to -- it's not -- again, it's not rocket science. we have the data. you know how people voted over the last four election cycles. it's going to their house, do you have your ballot? have you turned it in? let's go mail it. we'll get you to the polls. it requires all americans who have a little bit of time to frankly get involved. we want to ask people who they want to be the next president of the united states of the people who are possibilities. okay? who are out there. possibilities. raise your hands if you're for donald trump. >> there's a few people that aren't in the front.

>> holdouts. >> you're not 100%. >> desantis. >> ron desantis. a clap. >> two hands and a clap. joseph biden. come on. not even a wheeze. >> laura: how about nikki haley? a lot of people are looking at nikki haley. >> show of hands. >> half the hands. >> i love this. >> they did this -- that's a weak half a hand, maybe not, i'm still deciding. >> so the angle has offered our show as a platform for nikki haley to debate ron desantis. do we want to settle this once and for all? there has to be trump versus someone else. that's why a substancive debate, just nikki haley versus desantis. i think that would be awesome. because it's the populous versus a more traditional republican,

more globalist in some views. not everything. it's more of a traditionalist versus a populous conservative. ron desantis said he would do it. did all of you enjoy seeing president biden with king xi in san francisco? did you enjoy those moments? he really spruces up nicely when he meets his boss, don't you think? >> the town was sparkling. >> yeah. clean as you can eat off of the floor in the subway station. >> no droppings on the streets. >> the bart was all clean. here's what biden had to say about governor gavin newsome. watch this. >> i want to talk about governor newsome. i want to thank him. he's been one hell of a governor, man. as a matter of fact, he can have the job i'm looking for. >> at this point, he might. here's my question. should biden drop out of the

race at this point? round of applause. [applause] >> laura: no, you want to run against him. >> why should he drop out? >> biden quite obviously is no way up to the job, right? so it's very clear. the most powerful country in the world that's going downhill in incredible ways. there's no way that guy should continue to lead this country. >> laura: the anxiety of working people, middle class, even a little upper middle class is growing in the united states. how many of you have changed your plans, vacation plans, travel plans because of financial concerns over the past 18 months, two years? >> we're just got going to take any vacations. utilize our money. we're putting it away and waiting for the rainy day. i'm afraid it's going to happen. we own a business. doing the same thing with it. i think it's going to get worse before it gets better.

i just know that four years ago, before this, we were -- we did better than we ever have. now that four years is gone. i mean, it's -- i'm back to where i was four years ago when we had trump in office. so we're just going to hold on and hopefully see a new president come in. >> i think it's more than changing their vacation plans. i think it's -- even -- we are blessed, but i come from working class family. i change the way i shop for my groceries. where i shop for my groceries. where i put gas in my car. >> laura: that's a better question. >> and i think that's the part that hurts everybody. everybody feels it. almost regardless of what economic status you're in -- you live in. >> laura: the day-to-day decisions. we all feel it. gallon of milk -- everything. >> insurance and -- it's every part of your life.

>> laura: we were talking raymond and i. i said if i were running for office, the number one thing i'd say, by the time i get through with my presidency, gas will be closer to $2.30 again. i think just running on energy, the energy issue itself is just so powerful. >> and crime. >> laura: crime. shut down the border. get more independent american manufacturing. that is it for us tonight. we had an amazing week, especially in nashville at the patriot awards. i hope you watched on fox nation. we had a fantastic time. settle your dvr, stay connected with us. follow me on social all weekend long. we'll keep uploading videos and photos from the travels. you enjoy those as always. remember, it's america now and forever. will cane takes it from here
